It started with vanilla, as I’m sure it always does. So pure, so simple, just some cream, milk, sugar, vanilla — almost instant happiness. There’s just something about summer that intensifies the joys of ice cream. Yes, we can savor a scoop or two at any time of the year, but given the bounty of summer flavors, some of us get the urge to experiment with unexpected ingredients.

Armed with my sturdy little Cuisinart ice cream maker, I did just that during a span of several recent days. We traveled a sweet and savory path, the ice cream maker and I, and although it was a wonderful ride for the most part, we did run into an unexpected rocky road.

The recipe

Serves 6

600ml milk
1 fat vanilla pod
6 egg yolks
150g caster sugar

Pour 600ml milk into a saucepan. Slice a fat vanilla pod in half lengthways and scrape the sticky black vanilla seeds into the pan with the point of a knife. Drop the scraped pod in, too, then bring the mixture almost to the boil. Turn off the heat just before it boils. Leave for 30 minutes or so, for the vanilla to flavour the milk.

Beat 6 egg yolks and 150g caster sugar till light and fluffy. Fish out the vanilla pod but not the seeds from the milk, then pour it through a sieve into the egg yolks and sugar, stirring till you get a thin custard. Pour it into a clean saucepan.

Living in Florida, it can be hard to tell when Spring rolls into Summer without looking at the calendar. One sure sign for me is the arrival of stone fruits in the markets, especially peaches.

Around this time of year, peaches are everywhere, from the farmer’s markets to the grocery stores to the roadside stands that dot the sides of our country roads.

These ripe, juicy orbs of sweetness just beg to be dressed up as cobblers, compotes, crisps and of course, ice cream. I am only too happy to oblige!

For this luscious Honey-Peach Ice Cream, I decided to roast my peaches with a little honey. If you’ve never eaten a roasted peach, you’re missing out.
